Things I want that I'll probably never get

So a few months ago I bought all the Outsiders' trades. (From the run with Nightwing and Arsenal and company.) Which I enjoyed a good deal. Then had to go online to figure out who was still around from that run, you know how it is.

And you know what I want?

A Grace Choi action figure.

(Would also like Thunder and Lightning action figures, and not just to annoy my Black Lightning action figure.)

Anyway, I would love it if one of those were made available. And with the obscure characters that DC Universe Classics seems to be putting out, I'm starting to think it's a possibility.

Only thing is...the body mold. Just about every female character they've done has had the same rather petite body. Except Wonder Woman, and she's still not really as muscular (and absolutely not as tall) as she ought to be. I'm assuming that the upcoming Barda figure uses that same body mold, will see when she arrives presumably.

Unfortunately, it kind of makes me reluctant to get the female figures from that line. Because a petite figure is a breakable figure. Skinny arms fall off much more easily than muscled ones.

Well, show me a Grace Choi figure and I will get it regardless. And I'll bitch like crazy if she's got the same body mold as Batgirl/Cass.
